>When a remote Newfoundland town is terrorized by a mysterious sea creature, hard-bitten fisherman Calvin Penney (Josh Hartnett) must fight to protect his family, his community, and his vanishing way of life.

>mfw i find out i'm part welsh

looking forward to it
>>
They'll use everything of Lovecrafts work except the actual fucking stories, huh?
>>
>>223226384
the actual stories would mostly make for dogshit movies/shows
the only ones that would be good without significantly changing a bunch of it would be the Case of Charles Dexter Ward, maybe the Call of Cuthulhu as an anthology show and maybe the music of Eric Zann as a short horror film.
All other stories play out in a retarded way that is not gonna translate well to a screen, was already literally done or the idea is so obvious that it has been done in a different (and usually better) way like "the Temple"

They made a pretty good movie out of that one.

>>223226461
Eric Zann spooked me good.

Why is Cthulhu acting like a sneaky monster jumpscaring people instead of just rising from the water and causing despair in the whole world?
>>
>>223226461
Shadow over insmouth could be a decent movie.
>>
>>223226461
At the mountains of madness could work great as a movie
>>
>>223225553
JHart is a kino machine and I’m tired of lying about it
>>
>>223226738
Yes, that’s one of the handful that really would translate well to film.
>>
>>223226461
Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath would be pretty epic.
>>
>>223226738
purposely didnt include that one because it becomes weak towards the end. When they loredump in the ruins especially. They would have to rework a lot for a good translation to the screen

>Call of Cuthulhu as an anthology show
the actual cuthulhu scene would need some major changes cause just ramming him with a boat seems retarded. And they would ruin the swamp scene somehow. Doesnt visually work if you dont make them a actual grotesque mutt people but that would be racist
>>
>>223226461
Dreams in the witch house would be kino fuck you
>>
>>223225553
Why is every shot blue?
>>
>>223227500
It's a serious movie.
>>
>>223225553
mind-numbingly generic, relies on pop song to trick all the npcs. not Lovecraftian whatsoever. appalling.
>>
>>223225553
he's got a bit of that "innsmouth look", good casting
>>
>>223225553
doesn't look very interesting 2bh
>>
>>223226461
i think a lot could work provided there's narration of inner monologues, which i guess is some kinda big no-no for no reason in cinema now. ahh the moviemakers are sooo wise.
>>
>>223226742
20s generally suck dick, but Hartnett's return is one of the rare good things that happened.
>>
This nigga has played the same character the past decade
>>
>>223226738
Like more than half of the actual story is an infodump on the aliens

Woke white men and trump bad bullshit
It's all so tiresome

>>223226461
Most of them could be turned into some budget A24 piece with some extra spook padding.
>>
>>223225553
If you're reading this do me a favor.
Name a Josh Hartnett role you really don't like. He did a bad job it was poorly written whatever the reason what is it?
>>
>>223225553

>>
>>223228175
A show.

Cool.
>Netflix
>tiff
Suspicious.

>>223225553
